The first formation of the band was from three people : Kiky, Yusuf and Rony. Was recruiting a new bass player and meet Gatrik in Jayabaya University about in year of 1997. We thougth that the formation is complete, hang around alwasy and jamming but its only a session. At the time we haven't know much about Black Metal because by hearing other genres of under ground and each one of us were still busy.
A few month later between two till four months we decided to forum a
band, given a name and the genre of under ground music that we decided
to chose in 1998, 29 month may we decided to name our
band Barzakh. The style of our music we choose is Black Metal music.
We decided and we alwasy hear Black Metal music. We made a logo for the
